Now don't take this the wrong way (especially coming from me!) but...sheesh - it took you long enough!!

Heading over to restaurant board for 5-star food porn....

I'm telling you, we are just spoiled rotten now. I can't get over how much I loved the Boardwalk view and our big balcony. I know you guys are probably getting sick of me saying that, but it's true.

Not at all...the view is beautiful and I'm enjoying ALL of your pictures Michelle

The holiday finale was spectacular, and it left me crying. We were all amazed at how much better Illuminations was watching it from there. It just figures that I didn't have my video camera!!!

We were all in such a good mood after Illuminations that the kids didn't even mind the long walk around World Showcase, taking our time, as everyone else rushed out the front of Epcot. I could walk around World Showcase for hours after close! It's soooo beautiful! Instead of the usual after-show music, (which I love- they usually play Tapestry of Dreams music) they were playing Holiday music. It really got us in the Christmas spirit. We stopped half-way around World Showcase and just looked around, realizing that we were REALLY in WDW for Christmas! It was a dream come true!!!

What a wonderful dream come true

Sounds like the perfect Christmas and your children will remember it for the rest of their lives

The Stepford Children.... That's a great descriptor!

I love the picture of Brenna and daddy holding hands on your walk to the bus stop and your Disney KNOW AND TELL....LOVE IT!!! Thanks!

Sounds like a perfect start to Christmas Eve! In all our trips we have yet to make it to Boma. I'm concerned about my oh-so-picky DS finding something to eat there! Probably breakfast would be a better bet than dinner. Just something else to put on my to-do list!

 

[oybolshoi]

Sounds like a great way to spend Christmas Eve and I love the pictures of the AKL - we haven't made it over there yet (we will in May!!).

Great job, Michelle, as always!!

Michelle! I'm so glad you put pics up from your walk to MGM! I've always wanted to see what that was like! Will you tell me more about those type of glasses you were holding at Boma?!
